PDAs Don't Bounce

[Jokerswild]

I've had a Viewsonic V36 PDA for about 3 months and it is a GREAT Machine with it's handy (more than you would first think) built in camera, HOWEVER

This morning I dropped it on the floor and of course the screen cracked about 3 different directions.

Does anyone know where I can find replacement screens for this particular model (i'd be willing to put it in myself) or have any suggestion as to what steps I should take? It's under warrenty but I doubt it covers accidental.

You might be SOL. Many companies are just replacing models instead of providing parts. However, you might find a junker in the near future.

I had a Palm 3 which survived a fall off the roof of my SUV while doing 55mph. 6 months later it died for unknown reasons.

when shopping for my pda on ebay i ran into all kinds of how to fix a broken screen things....it sounds kinda fake to me but it could accually work and it might be worth the 5 bucks to check it out

Well I just emailed Viewsonic Customer Service so we are going to wait and see for now...I have a feeling by the time I get a replacement screen and pay for shipping the cost would be as much as buying a new one.
